Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottoms of serving cups.
  2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture, then add butterscotch sauce.
  4. Assemble: Spoon the cheesecake filling into each crust-filled cup, smoothing the tops for presentation.
  5. Chill: Cover cups and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until set.
  6. Serve: Remove from the fridge and top with whipped cream and optional butterscotch drizzle or crushed toffee.
